Terrific stay

Stayed here for a night and it was terrific. Breakfast was 8.95 and delish. Oatmeal was super with all the fixings and coffee yummy. Serving staff were a delight! Thrilled for 1.75/load to do some laundry-been on road two weeks. Bed comfy. Parking free and easy. Next to Texas Roadhouse. Shower good. WIFI worked (last hotel it did not) So highly recommend

Very good, but nothing special.

The room was nice, nothing special. I was surprised that breakfast was an extra charge. The elevators were a bit clunky and smelled of urine, like someone had taken a leak in them. The hallway on the 2nd floor smelled of frying meat in the evening.

It’s been better.

The hotel and staff were very nice. Unfortunately my room did not measure up. Dimly lit, cramped, and unlike all the photos. The shower stall was very narrow and my shoulders barely fit. I do t remember my last visit being like this.

Friendly staff, convenient location, room was clean. Only thing that would’ve made it better is if they offered free breakfast. But there are options within minutes of the hotel if you don’t want to spend the $9-$13pp.
